There are several benefits for being a Hm Battle Defender. As a Hm Defender versus an Ultimate Mode Defender. You only loose Behemoth as an aoe. As well as a few other random spells.

Hm Fighter versus Hm Battle Defender (Aoe)- The Hm Fighter has a few more Aoes. This means that they can Aoe a bit faster than a HM Battle Defender. The Defender has Darkness/Silence/Stop Blow. Which means that without even factoring in either characters Hit-points and Defense. The Defender is already more effective at surviving. This allows a Defender of the same Mode/Level/Gear. To Aoe more monsters at the same time than a Fighter.

An Hm Fighter is ideal in a Fighter/Priest duo. There higher damage output will allow them to kill faster than a Defender of the same Level/Mode/Gear. You will also find that parties in the higher levels. Will take a Defender over a Fighter any day of the weak. Due to there Blow skills which negate all damage for X amount of seconds. Defender/Priest Duos are also effective. Though a Priest that will Dispel and heal when needed. Is far more useful than one that just spams heal. The same can be said for a Fighter/Priest Duo.

I recommend leveling up your Hm Fighter to Level 53. Then farming Dual Lapis in Dinos. You can then buy Protect Item Drops. Which will protect all items in your inventory. Making farming that much safer. Make sure to place all valuable items you want to keep in your Warehouse. When you are not farming with a Protect Item Drop. You can farm in that area at your current level if you want. It will just be a bit more ideal at level 53. You should learn how to solo farm. Since a Priest will not be available in most cases.

You can farm on your Hm Fighter. When you don't feel like leveling your Hm Defender.

No, HM guardians don't get behemoth rage, that's UM only.
While guardians/defenders do get a large number of AoE attacks, they don't become AoE until the mid 30's, they have long cooldowns, and they aren't multi-hit large damage skills like warriors/fighters get.
If you are going for outright damage then a warrior is probably the best choice.
However, guardians have a lot of other advantages.
